Communal Bathing 02.
Ocean Immersion

The practice of bathing together to foster connection.

BAINA represents the reconnection to one's bathing routine. Our identity is deeply rooted in the belief that bathing, as an intentional practice, can be an everyday act of self-care. While often a solitary ritual, we understand the significance of communal bathing to foster connection and a shared sense of community.


Our intention for the series is to bring together those who share our affinity for the ancient tradition of communal bathing.

Intrigued to explore the benefits of restorative ocean waters, BAINA held the second edition of communal bathing at Wylie's Baths, the oldest surviving ocean pool in Sydney.

Set oceanside, participants were guided through an immersive sound bath, awakening stretch, and ocean immersion to invigorate, foster clarity and connect to self.

Post-immersion, participants were invited to dry off and relax over the conversation that flows from communal bathing.
